Hello all --

Briefly, I have been asked to price, purchase, and place
(presumedly in working order :-) a Laserjet IIp printer on
a Series 400 node.  I have little (read zero) background
regarding the connectivity issues involved in HP/Apollo 
configurations, although I have little doubt that this will
change by the time this project has been completed.

In addition to the above mentioned, this machine is running
the MC68040.

I believe my ignorance to reside chiefly in the following
areas:

1.) What will I need in the way of hardware add-ons?
2.) Will I need to take possession of device drivers
	designed specifically for use with the 68040?
3.) What daemons will need to be activated or 
	modified to support the LaserjetIIp?
4.) Area #4 includes all areas unreferenced by numbers
	1, 2, & 3.

I am most grateful to any and all who take time to step
into this fray, and offer my thanks in advance.
